USD Summary: The USD has been in negative territory for a while now. It is showing signs of awakening but it is yet to be seen whether is a minor correction to continue negative trend or whether a trend reversal to the upside is in motion.

Overall Market Conclusion: The USD continues to be under pressure by most currencies except the Swiss Franc and the Japanese Yen which have shown sign of weakness against all other major currencies. The EUR is having a hard time against the AUD, CAD, GBP & NZD. It is yet to be determined but it seems the AUD, CAD & NZD may win the fight. The AUD & NZD continue their upward momentum with what it looks to be a brief correction, especially against CHF, JPY and maybe even CAD & USD. The CAD has certainly remain strong against CHF, JPY & USD but so so against AUD & NZD.

In our opinion, lining up all major currencies from strong to week:

NZD – AUD – GBP – CAD – EUR – USD – CHF – JPY
